From the Juno ARM Development Platform - ARM link, i understand that Juno board has linux kernel support for Mali GPU.Does it have OpenCL support so that i can run OpenCL applications on Mali GPU?
Why one may need to have OpenCL compiled for ARM? What may be the possible scenario for this?
Thanks
Nathan
Hi nathan,
The Juno does indeed contain a Mali T760 T628* MP4 GPU, which indeed is capable of running OpenCL 1.1 Full Profile.
However, currently the BSP released by Linaro does not have it enabled in software yet.
According to Linaro under AOSP filesystem limitations "OpenCL support is not present at this time and will be enabled in a future release"
I believe the intention is that Linaro's OpenCL support will only be available for Android.
I hope that helps answer your question. I do not have an ETA on when Linaro plan to release OpenCL for Android, and/or if their plans to only release for Android have changed... you may need to contact Linaro directly for that.
Kind Regards,
Michael McGeagh
